All the flaws I have, make sure you've found them

Danish singer Inez seems to be assciated with house or club music wherever I read about her, but I'm guessing that has more to do with remixes than all her songs themselves--sure, most of them are danceable, but, in their original formats, they could just as easily be called pop. If Wikipedia can be believed, the following song was her least successful, though that's just based on the dance charts, I think, and I guess I can understand that--comparing remixed versions, other songs win out. In the original versions, though, I think this is her best song.

Walk Away Tonight--Inez's voice is, for lack of a better word, rough; it's not the sort of voice people are ever going to refer to as pretty or delicate and some people might even find it obnoxious, but it does fit this song--if she sounds rough and world-weary, she should, based on the "trying to break the cycle and leave behind someone who's done you wrong" theme of this song. The sweeter backing vocals (which could be her, for all I know) are a nice contrasting point, though, almost highlighting the roughness voice while also bringing another catchy element to this not particularly complex song (by that, I mean it doesn't sound "busy"). This is also the slowest and least danceable--not dance at all--of her songs, but it sounds, from what I've heard, like it's the best, strangely catchy. It's not in-your-face, but it can be slowly addictive.

(By the way, the lines in what I think is the middle 8 were too long for me to quote entirely as the title, but I like them and how they're delivered and the tone of them--it's not particularly strong, despite being a brushoff.)

To buy Inez's single "Walk Away Tonight" (she's released four singles but no album yet, though I think her album Bed And Breakfast is due to come out sometime soon), go here (digital) or go to iTunes.

Next up: a Spanish singer.
